Process

I had a phone interview first, then was called over for an on-site interview with the team. I interviewed with 5 people. The questions were mostly related to my background and what they were looking for in a candidate, such as SOA and security. There were also some Java questions.

Questions

Are abstract methods faster than the methods of an interface?
